We’ve built our reputation across Sydney, Wollongong, and surrounds by providing reliable service, premium materials, and flawless finishes tailored to each client’s needs.
Windows are more than just a view to the outside world. They have an impact on energy efficiency, security, and the overall look of your property. With VV Glass, you can expect window installations that not only look great but also stand the test of time. VV Glass is a local glazier from Engadine that replaces and installs windows in Como’s cottages, family homes and units. What you pay mostly comes down to the window style, frame and glass, any repairs to old openings and access, and we reply promptly with a straightforward quote.
Window Installation for Como Homes and Character Cottages
Como has some of the oldest housing in the Sutherland Shire, from early weatherboard cottages near the station to mid-century brick homes on the slopes above the Georges River and Scylla Bay. Many still rely on original timber sashes that have swollen, rattled or rotted after decades of river humidity, along with single glazing that loses heat fast in winter. Owners often want better comfort and security without stripping away the look that makes these homes appealing. Well-chosen new windows can deliver both, while keeping the street appeal intact.
That balance is where VV Glass focuses. We match new windows to the proportions and style of your home, whether that means traditional double-hung sashes for a cottage frontage or wider modern sliders for a rear extension facing the water. Our window installation team handles measuring, supply, removal of old frames, fitting and finishing, and we explain upfront how each option affects appearance, maintenance and energy performance so you can decide with confidence.
Our Way of Handling Window Installations in Como
Style matching
We look at existing sightlines, sash proportions and colours so replacement windows sit naturally with the rest of the house.
Honest condition checks
Old timber sills and reveals are inspected before quoting, and we tell you what is sound, what needs repair and what can stay.
Mixed-material options
We can install timber-look, aluminium or combination solutions depending on your budget and the maintenance you are willing to take on.
Tidy work in lived-in homes
Most Como clients stay home during the job, so we work room by room, contain dust and secure every opening before we finish for the day.
What Your Window Installation in Como Can Cover
Your project can be as simple as one sticky window or as broad as a full-home refresh, including:
Double-hung sash windows. A traditional look that suits cottages and older frontages.
Casement and awning windows. Good airflow for bedrooms and bathrooms on humid river days.
Sliding and stacking windows. Wider openings for kitchens and extensions facing the water.
Obscure and frosted glass. Privacy for bathrooms and side windows close to neighbours.
Laminated security glass. Extra protection for street-facing and ground-floor rooms.
Double glazing or Low-E glass. Warmer winters and cooler summers in older homes.
Sill and reveal repairs. Making good timber and plaster around the new frame.
We help you prioritise, so the windows that make the biggest difference are done first.
Fixing Ageing Timber Windows and River Damp in Como
Como’s riverside position and older housing stock create a recognisable set of window problems. Here is what we find most often.
Swollen, sticking sashes. Moisture from the Georges River and shaded gullies swells old timber. New frames that suit the conditions open and close smoothly year round.
Rot in sills and frames. Water collecting on flat sills causes rot that spreads into the wall. We remove damaged timber, repair the opening and fit properly sloped, sealed sills.
Draughts and heat loss. Gaps around old sashes let warmth escape. Well-sealed frames with insulated glass keep rooms noticeably more comfortable.
Condensation and mould. Cold single glazing on south-facing walls runs with moisture in winter. Double glazing reduces it.
Weak locks. Older catches are easy to force, so we fit modern keyed locks.
Each fix is chosen to suit the age and style of your home rather than forcing a modern template onto it, so the house keeps its charm while working far better day to day.
How Much Does It Cost to Install Windows in Como?
Window installations in Como vary widely in scope, especially in older homes, so we price each job after an inspection. These are the key factors.
| What we consider | Effect on your quote |
|---|---|
| Window style | Traditional double-hung or custom-sized sashes cost more than standard sliders. |
| Frame material | Timber, aluminium and timber-look finishes differ in price and upkeep. |
| Repairs to the opening | Rotted sills, reveals or lintels add repair work. |
| Glass upgrades | Double glazing, laminated or obscure glass change the total. |
| Access and quantity | Upper floors, tight side passages and the number of windows all play a part. |

Installing Windows Across Como, Como West and the River Suburbs
Our glaziers work throughout Como NSW 2226, which sits within the Sutherland Shire Council area on the southern bank of the Georges River. We install windows in cottages close to Como station and the historic Como Hotel, in homes overlooking Scylla Bay and the Como Pleasure Grounds, and across the leafy streets of Como West. Older properties can involve extra checks on frames and walls, and for bigger renovations we can supply window and glass details to your builder, certifier or council application.
From our Engadine NSW 2233 base, the drive to Como takes us along the Princes Highway to Sutherland and then north through Jannali, a short trip within the Shire. That makes it easy to inspect older windows, schedule installation around your routine and return for any fine-tuning. We also install windows in neighbouring Jannali, Oyster Bay, Bonnet Bay, Kareela and Sutherland, so residents along this stretch of the river can work with the same local team from first measure to final clean-up.
Safety & Compliance
All of our window installations are carried out in line with Australian Standards for glass and glazing. This ensures every project not only looks exceptional but also meets strict safety requirements. Whether it’s windows for a family home or large-scale commercial property, you can trust VV Glass to prioritise both style and security.
